This card stock has a coating, so I highly recommend heat setting it to keep it from smearing. It also softens the brightness of the ink colors. The greeting was embossed with clear powder &amp; the teal backing used the same die. I cut it twice &amp; attached it offset a bit. Two narrow teal layers were added behind the ivory star dream.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/You-are-Special-xcu-IMG7934.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-42529 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/You-are-Special-xcu-IMG7934.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1051\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/You-are-Special-xcu-IMG7934.jpg 1051w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/You-are-Special-xcu-IMG7934-400x244.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/You-are-Special-xcu-IMG7934-980x597.jpg 980w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/You-are-Special-xcu-IMG7934-175x107.jpg 175w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/You-are-Special-xcu-IMG7934-768x468.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/You-are-Special-xcu-IMG7934-197x120.jpg 197w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1051px) 100vw, 1051px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Thanks <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">so much for stopping by! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Julie2-sig.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12715\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Julie2-sig.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"134\" height=\"50\" \/><\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Supplies: \u00a0(click the names below the pictures to take you to the products)<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 177px;\" border=\"0\" width=\"724\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"6\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody id=\"collapseobj_photoinfo\">\n<tr style=\"height: 23px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 100%;

Either as a thanks, birthday or just because. The background is a 3 part stencil and I used the inks on star dream card stock for a shimmery finish. A little hard to photograph but so pretty in person. For the Inspiration Challenge IC1021, we are visiting Casely &amp; their Pinterest Board. They have some really cute phone cases and I chose THIS one as my inspiration. It reminded me of the stencil I used. To make my card, I die cut a couple of sizes out of ivory star dream then used the inks &amp; 3 part stencil on top of it. This card stock has a coating, so I highly recommend heat setting it to keep it from smearing. It also softens the brightness of the ink colors. The greeting was embossed with clear powder &amp; the teal backing used the same die. I cut it twice &amp; attached it offset a bit. Two narrow teal layers were added behind the ivory star dream. Thanks so much for stopping by!
